so when leasing airwaves Mr Murdoch is paying the OP? or i missed smth



It's a bit of a mental stretch, but... the airwaves our "ours" because we pay taxes to fund the FCC to regulate them that way.


i thought vice versa, we pay taxes to operate/regulate anything that is in public domain ("ours" already), not that we buy it with our taxes from someone.
